The only engine that will drop straight in is another CU 2lte Aircold, Go any other way is dependent on how deep your pockets are,
Mine was an 1982 Aircold but I did a complete conversion ( come project in the end )
description is in my signature,

and Hello to the club a little bit more info in your sig is required, ie were you are (location) and a valid e-mail address, I am not very far from you as you list a Liverpool area phone code,

years ago on my first T3 we fitted a WO code 1700 injection engine, 85 bhp instead of 68bhp from the CU motor
I bought the whole car, and swapped everything in, rehoming the brain, was the most annoying bit of it, as I didn't want to unplug the cable from the brain, just incase
it made a big difference to the bus
it's almost a straight swap, appart from finding a home for the brain
